Default Re: Tough spot with TT

Probably should've just posted this whole bit at once. Feel free to discuss both preflop and flop decisions though.

Perhaps folding is the right play preflop. Shoving it all-in in this spot seems far too risky, and even though our stacks are pretty nice compared to the field, calling isn't all that comfortable. How much of an edge did I really expect to have here?

Anyway, I'm not one to go away easily and I had position on the raiser, so I took the flop. Maybe that was mistake #1, but postflop is where I really think I botched this one.
